Zack Bern

&nbsp Zack Bern was a Colonial Fleet Officer who briefly commanded the Battlestar Eternity during the Assault on Caprica.

Birth and Early Life
Nothing is known about Bern, apart from the fact he is a Sagittaron.

The Attack on Caprica
After retreating from the doomed defence of Caprica, he jumped to the Battlestar Daedalus, where he reported everything to its commander, Admiral Yerome. He was given a field promotion to commander and was given command of the Eternity.

After returning to Caprica, seconds after jumping out, his ship was hit by sixty missiles, and rendered useless, Yerome ordered him to plot a collision course with one of the attacking Cylon Basestars and abandon ship. Instead, he ordered his crew to evacuate while he manually flew the ship into the Cylon ship.

Legacy
He was posthumously awarded the Colonial Citiation of Merit and the Distinguished Service Medal for his actions.
